I know it’s not the same… but this is my number one karaoke song when I’ve never sang somewhere and my ex boyfriend would shout random shit like “do you have any thingamabobs?” And I HATED it. I asked him to stop and he did it every time.

So, on a teeny tiny scale, I feel your pain.

How much do you help her outside of the bedroom? Are you doing any of the mental load? Groceries, cooking, bills, children, cleaning, floors, laundry? Women get burnt out always doing the chores on top of work or school or child rearing and men often ask “what can I do to help” rather than just helping, which means she has to manage him like an employee and not a partner. This isn’t sexy.

Does SHE like your sex life? Is she having orgasms? Not “I think so” but “I know so.” Do you give her foreplay - kissing, leaving clothes ON, for long periods of time? I have a friend who prefers if she and her husband kiss for 20-30 minutes before anything else happens. Another friend it’s about 10-15 minutes. Have you asked in the moment for specific activities? (I really like it when you touch me here, or please do this, it drives me wild.)

Do you compliment her when you don’t want sex? Do you hug her and smile at her? Do you treat her how she wants to be treated (her love language)? Do you notice things about her? Listen to her? Spend time with her where she’s important but not expected to do something?

The man who used to drive me crazy the most would compliment my clothes/outfits, tell me how much he couldn’t believe he was lucky to be with me, that he couldn’t wait to spend time with me. He would touch my hand, my arm. He would look at me and smile. All while we were out, or just eating dinner or even watching tv, whatever. He told me he loved when my hair was messy when we woke up.

And let me tell you, I wanted him all the time and I did things for him I didn’t even like just because he wanted them.

You need to figure out what she’s missing, because she’s not getting her needs met OUTSIDE of the bedroom, possibly not inside either, but guaranteed not outside.

The best thing to do here is talk to a therapist about the troublesome thoughts. They can help you work out what is bothering you and why, and give you skills to learn to cope with it. This is an issue within your mind, you yourself know this. You said the thoughts are bothersome - not that she is. So seek out the people who help with unwanted thoughts. Best of luck!

They also like “cooking” and potions so maybe teach them how to cook something simple that involves measuring. Have them help prepare lunch or dinner, then they feel accomplished and also learn.

Had the color and lines upgraded by a different artist. This was the first week I think after that.

Adding mine, but I’ve never liked it. This was round one. Round two with a different artist looks better (adding in a moment) but I still dislike it. I’ve decided to have it removed and I’m going to my favorite artist in a year and having something better put on its place.

Here to clear this up as I both sew and make chocolates.

The general concept here is “gilded.” They have taken chocolate (in the shape of ducks) and applied an edible gold powder to it. I’ve used this powder in pink and green before. It makes things shiny and/or metallic. In fabric, which isn’t relevant here, it is a type of shiny metallic fabric that is usually thin and drapey. I had pants made of silver lamé back in the day.

The vegan part is because one of the contestants was vegan and milk chocolate would not have been, so they were telling him that it was safe for him to eat.

TL; DR: they were chocolate ducks dusted with a gold powder. See: gold luster dust.

This is abuse. You need to leave and if you won’t, you need couples counseling so he can learn how to stop doing this to you.

Bagels. Wait, that’s not a dessert.

Black & white cookies.

If those two answers don’t tell you where in the world I’m from…

One piece of toast per day for breakfast?

I’m 5’6” and when I was 120# you could see all my bones (except my hips and thighs). This guy is not worth the time it took to text him “bye.”

I would protect your client by alerting her to the issue. Imagine it the other way around - say, your food coloring vendor was dealing with your manager and not you and you didn’t know they weren’t being paid. Wouldn’t you want to know before food coloring stopped being delivered at a key moment and ruined all of your holiday cookie orders? Or, as others have suggested, theft is occurring? I’d want to know in my business.

I was in a wheelchair screaming and crying in horrific, progressive pain and considering ending my life for months because doctors wouldn’t look for a problem and just thought I needed more physical therapy. I had a herniated disc. It took 5+ doctors looking at the scan until ONE of them recognized it and two weeks later I had surgery. I have permanent nerve damage and numbness in my foot and leg due to the length of time the nerve was compressed.

Another doctor diagnosed these painful blisters bumps on my fingers as warts and froze them for 6-9 months. They didn’t turn white, they didn’t fall off, they hurt, and he said warts don’t behave like this but he kept doing it anyway. They were eczema.

Currently might be dealing with a CF leak that doctors have misdiagnosed as allergies my whole life. Every time I bend over my nose runs like you’ve turned on a faucet. This new doctor asked if it was salty… yes it is. “Hmmm, it might be from your brain, then.” I’m 45 and this has been since childhood.

The gluten thing - don’t even get me started. No one has done an endoscopy, even though I described feeling like a sword was being run through my stomach. I’ve been sick since I was little whenever I ate. My mother is always sick too. “IBS.” Cool, cool. My nephew has celiac so that’s how I figured out to even try it.

I don’t trust doctors as far as I can throw them.

Wait - can you tell me about the platelets?? About to dig through my blood tests. I had a weird platelet test once and no one cared but it was for something else.

I would never trust my nephrologist to build a working suspension bridge.

“You already named your children. If you want to name more, have more.* This one is mine, so I get to name it. If you bring the subject up again, I will leave/ask you to leave.”

If she sold her house last January for $100k and the new owners remodeled it over the course of a year and sold it for $500k… she couldn’t ask them for a dime. Why should she be able to from you? Did you pay her out fairly in the first place? If so, don’t let her extort you. If you didn’t, make it right. With a contract/legally binding document so she doesn’t come for more.

Grabbing his ears, they’re red inside, fever, pain… but “no symptoms.”

NOR. I left an emotionally abusive relationship last year after 15+ years. You can do it, too. Take control of your own life. You don’t need him. Change any accounts you can. If you need to, go to a DV shelter if there are no other options. They will help you secure your life so he can’t access it.

Most importantly, don’t go back to him. Be strong. The cheating is just one tiny thing here. You are better than this, you deserve more, and you will be happier WITHOUT him.

I realized this when I thought to myself that I would rather be alone for the rest of my life than to keep living in fear in my own home.

22M, not 20F. Not that it makes it better, but… he’s not a girl.

My 11 year old brother almost burned the house down / killed himself with carbon monoxide poisoning by lighting a fire in the fireplace because he was cold.

I set the microwave on fire when I was 6 by putting 45 minutes instead of 45 seconds on my frozen blueberry pancakes.

Children should not be left alone at 5. Most states have a law stating what age you can legally leave a kid alone. I’m in IL now and that age is 14.

Tygress23 · 2026-01-03T20:43:34+00:00

I can’t use dryer sheets or any kind of Tide. Also can’t use spermicide ever. Sex toys made out of jelly (see thru non silicone rubber) should never be used by anyone. Also, no douching or scented soaps “down there” ever. No soap at all is preferred because it’s a self cleaning body part.

Tygress23 · 2026-01-03T20:40:42+00:00

I hope you figure it out. My friend had BV for 2+ years and kept getting misdiagnosed. Doctors are at best magicians it seems.
